Newton Diamond Bass strings are designed to work best for live performance. Nickel-plated steel is hand wound over a hexagonal core giving these strings outstanding sustain and excellent life.
Newtone Platinum Bass strings are designed specifically for studio work. Wound with a thinner, nickel-plated steel outer wrap over a hexagonal core, finger noise is greatly reduced. Their special core-to-wrap ratio is set to give each string a true fundamental note resulting in less string compression required for recording.

Both series are available in 4 or 5-string sets, including two 5-string Platinum piccolo bass sets. Newtone combines the finest materials available, traditional craftsmanship and the latest technical knowledge to produce these world class strings.
